Latest nursing home stats: State now identifies only those with current outbreaks
Illinoisans will no longer be able to sift through historical data on coronavirus outbreaks in nursing homes.
State public health officials on Friday published figures only for long-term care facilities that are dealing with current outbreaks, or at least one case within the previous 28 days.
That means nursing homes ravaged by COVID-19 earlier in the pandemic weren't included in the latest weekly list released by the Illinois Department of Public Health.
"In an effort to share with Illinois residents the current burden of COVID-19 in the state, IDPH is publishing on its website current outbreaks at long-term care facilities across the state," spokeswoman Melaney Arnold said via email. "IDPH is also providing the total number of cases and deaths among residents of long-term care facilities since the beginning of the pandemic."
The state's totals show at least 7,914 laboratory-confirmed cases and 2,099 deaths among residents.
At least 2,152 residents and employees have died, according to the updated data for facilities with current outbreaks.
Meadowbrook Manor of Bolingbrook again had the highest number of deaths - 38 - followed by Villa at Windsor Park in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood with 33.
AARP Illinois State Director Bob Gallo called the reporting change "troubling because it keeps viewers from seeing historical data on people who have contracted the virus."
"This information is crucial, especially for those who are in the already difficult position of seeking a facility they can trust," Gallo said in a statement. "Without an accurate history of COVID-19 reports at nursing homes, people seeking a long-term care facility won't have ample information to ensure that their loved one will be both cared for and protected from contracting COVID-19."
Last week, before the reporting change, the statewide death toll stood at 1,975. The Chateau Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Willowbrook, a 150-bed facility associated with 58 COVID-19 cases and 11 cases as of last Friday, was one of the nursing homes that dropped off the list.
Below is a look at the outbreaks in many suburban facilities, with the number of cases followed by the number of deaths:
